Shark NewsCam is a clean, upgraded shark news camera script that gives in-character reporters a professional broadcast overlay for FiveM roleplay servers. It rebuilds on the classic newscam idea with smoother visuals and tighter, item-driven controls that fit naturally into any media or press job you already run.
Reporters can frame their shots, roll an animated news header across the screen, and cover live city events with the polish of a real television broadcast. That production value turns press conferences, police chases, and studio interviews into genuinely shareable, cinematic moments for your whole community to watch and clip.
What the shark news camera script includes
The resource keeps activation simple while still giving journalists the tools they need to look official on camera. Everything runs from a single item and one command, so there is nothing clunky to fumble with in the middle of a live broadcast.
- Animated on-screen news header for immersive in-character reporting and live coverage.
- Movie mode that hides the entire HUD for clean recording and cinematics.
- An /editnews command to customise exactly what the header displays on air.
- Item-based use through ox_inventory for tidy, role-locked access to the camera.
- One-command workflow that is quick and easy to teach brand-new reporters.
Made for media roleplay teams
Because it is optimised and lightweight, this overlay is easy to merge into a larger news or press resource without dragging down performance. Server owners can hand it to a Weazel-style outlet and let the storytelling and journalism take over from there.
- Optimised code that stays quiet and stable on your server thread.
- Simple structure that developers can fold into existing media scripts.
- Customisable header content to match your station's name and branding.
- Works alongside phones, cameras, and event tools for full event coverage.
- Community-tested improvements layered on top of the original release.
A dedicated press corps adds a whole extra layer to city life, giving elections, gang wars, and public scandals a voice that reaches every player on the server. This overlay is the missing piece that makes those broadcasts actually look the part.
Give your reporters a real reason to leave the newsroom and chase the story out across the map. The end result is richer, more reactive roleplay for everyone tuning in to watch the coverage.
